 A gothy good read! ^_^Has anyone else ever read 'The Graveyard Book' by Neil Gaiman? Even though it was not intended to be gothic, I certainly found it so! It is one of the novels that made me realize I like darker things, which eventually led me become goth. And for some reason it always reminds me of Christmas, although I don't believe they talk about christmas at all...

Re: A gothy good read! ^_^ I just checked out the book's trailer on YouTube.
Boy lives in a graveyard and is raised by ghosts. Sure sounds like a gothy good read to me! -- Nephele |

Re: A gothy good read! ^_^ I love the concept! Although it was intended for younger children I do believe, I find it a nice and Goth-y book anyhow!

I was actually thinking of reading it, since I already read Neverwhere which was very good!  _________________ My goth name: Absinthe Winterberry Papilio enim mortuum puella (butterfly for a dead girl) |

Re: A gothy good read! ^_^ ^^DO IT
It's actually deep, but in a fun-loving way. It's not silly or childish, and you can actually be interested reading it, even though it IS meant for children (but so is Nightmare Before Christmas, and a lot of us read that). _________________ "Destiny is always something you must come up with on your own.

Re: A gothy good read! ^_^ I'll check it out, too. I liked Neverwhere and Stardust.
